This book develops the discourse on the experiences of
ex-combatants and their transition from war to peace, from the
perspective of scholars across disciplines. Ex-combatants are often
overlooked and ignored in the post-conflict search for memory and
understanding, resulting in their voice being excluded or
distorted. This collection seeks to disclose something of the lived
experience of ex-combatants who have made the transition from war
to peace to help to understand some of the difficulties they have
encountered in social and emotional reintegration in the wake of
combat. These include: motivations and mobilizations to
participation in military struggle; the material difficulties
experienced in social reintegration after the war; the emotional
legacies of conflict; the discourses they utilize to reconcile
their past in a society moving forward from conflict toward peace;
and ex-combatants' subsequent engagement - or not - in
peacebuilding. It also examines the contributions that former
combatants have made to post-conflict compromise, reconciliation
and peacebuilding. It focusses on male non-state actors, women,
child soldiers and, unusually, state veterans, and complements
previous volumes which captured the voices of victims in Northern
Ireland, South Africa and Sri Lanka. This volume speaks to those
working in the areas of sociology, criminology, security studies,
politics, and international relations, and professionals working in
social justice and human rights NGOs.
